The combat in this game is in my opinion, some of the best I have seen in an indie game, this mixed with the parkour actually provides for a challenging experience, I am overall very happy to add this game to my library.

Yeah, this is probably the best sword game ever. It's essentially the style meter of DMC with some of the mechanics of Arkane's golden age (namely Dishonored and Dark Messiah) + parkour fun. The interesting design choice of this game is that all of the techniques aren't locked behind a skill tree, but rather are available from the first level of the game. Up until the final boss, the whole game functions as one big tutorial level, where abilities are hinted about through text boxes. One notable flaw of the game might be that it lacks ambition. Every level looks the same, and the campaign is 5 hours. That being said, I would rather have a polished, finished 5-hour campaign than a buggy 10-hour poopshow.

This game has no flaws. I really mean that. And now it has custom maps. Buy this game so the developer can make us a sequel.
